choose the word that has the same vowel sound as the one represented by the letter(s) underlined.

pint

Answer Details
The word that has the same vowel sound as the one represented by the underlined letters in "pint" is "late." The underlined letters in "pint" are "i" and "n," and they make the /ɪ/ vowel sound. The word "late" has the same /eɪ/ vowel sound as the word "pint," which is different from the vowel sounds in the other options. Therefore, the word "late" is the best option that has the same vowel sound as the one represented by the underlined letters in "pint." The other options, "plait," "lisp," and "busy," have different vowel sounds and do not match the /ɪ/ sound represented by the underlined letters in "pint." "Plait" and "lisp" have the same vowel sound /aɪ/ as in "my" and "high," respectively. "Busy" has the same vowel sound /ʌ/ as in "cup" and "hut."
